Reduction potentials of some ions are given below. Arrange them in decreasing order of oxidsing power. {:("Ion",ClO_(4)^(-),IO_(4)^(-),BrO_(4)^(-)),("Reduction",E^(@)=-1.19V,E^(@)=1.65V,E^(@)=1.74V),("potentail"E^(@)//V,,,):}

Answer»

`ClO_(4)^(-) GT IO_(4)^(-) gt BrO_(4)^(-)`
`IO_(4)^(-) gt BrO_(4)^(-) gt ClO_(4)^(-)`
`BrO_(4)^(-) gt IO_(4)^(-) gt ClO_(4)^(-)`
`BrO_(4)^(-) gt ClO_(4)^(-) gt IO_(4)^(-)`

Solution :Higher the reduction POTENTIAL stronger the reducing agent, i.e., option (c) is correct.
